A startup just built a data center powered by HUMAN brain cells. Actual lab-grown human neurons sitting on silicon chips, processing information, learning in real time. And it uses less power than a handheld calculator. Let that sink in for a second. Every GPU Nvidia sells runs on up to 6,000 watts of electricity. Each of Cortical Labs' CL1 biological compute units runs on 30 watts. That's a 200x energy difference. Here's what they built and why this matters: Human neurons grown from stem cells are placed onto silicon chips that send and receive electrical signals. Software interacts with the cells and interprets their responses as computing output. The neurons aren't mimicking a brain. They ARE a brain. Living, adapting, learning. An earlier version of the system taught itself to play Pong. The latest learned to play Doom. Nobody programmed it. It figured it out. Now they've opened their first commercial data center in Melbourne. A second is coming in Singapore. The Melbourne site houses 120 CL1 units. Singapore is targeting up to 1,000. Now here's why this matters: ...
